Lasagna Cups

Lasagna Cups

I know this looks terribly fiddly and like it’s going to be way too much trouble for a week night. And in some ways, it is. Because of that, I decided to eliminate the whole bechamel/cheese sauce part of normal lasagna making and substituted it with a very easy creme fraiche ‘sauce’ which can be made in a minute.

To save even more time, you can buy ready-made fresh lasagna sheets. They aren’t easily available but I’ve seen them at a few supermarkets and I know Food Lover’s Market has most of the time. This just makes this recipe even easier to do as you don’t have to worry about cooking the lasagna sheets before hand. That being said, I only cooked my sheets for 5 minutes. All you want is for it to soften enough for you to be able to press them into the muffin tray.

I used my jumbo muffin tray but if you only have a standard 12-hole muffin pan, then by all means use it. You’ll probably only need one sheet of lasagna in that case. I served the Lasagna cups with a green salad and crusty garlic bread and my family were thoroughly impressed.

Being a general food freak has proven to be quite helpful in this career I've found myself in. Author of two cookbooks, photographer, food stylist. Mom to twins. Ex make-up and hair artist obsessed with beautiful clothes and spaces. I love a good G&T and I've been known to spend too much money on shoes.
